Experience
I recently received my doctorate in physics from the University of California--Davis. During the last 3 years of my PhD, I tutored both high school and college students in physics and math. I've also lectured an introductory physics course and was a TA for introductory, advanced, and graduate-level physics and mathematical physics courses. I really enjoy getting to know students and helping them to succeed. I find it very rewarding when a student of mine understands a difficult concept and when they get the grade they want. Both physics and math are difficult subjects, and most people need to see a few different explanations of a topic before it's thoroughly understood. I really enjoy being a part of this process. As a physics relies heavily on math, I've had to take many math courses in my PhD program and during undergrad. I've tutored students in calculus and linear algebra, but am also able to tutor for other math topics, such as statistics and differential equations. I've received my PhD in physics. I've taught, tutored and researched physics for the past 6 years. I love to help others understand this beautiful, but difficult, subject! Contact me if you're interested!
